Readers! I have a guest post on my blog today and I’m really excited to welcome (back!) Rachel Garlinghouse. Rachel is a fellow adoptive parent and writer that I’ve connected with through this little space on the internet and I’m delighted to share her with you. If you enjoy her writing or know someone it…
…like I could ever have just one word. As if. And if you’re new here, I’m one wordy bitch. Consider that your welcome. I’m serving mint juleps on the veranda…come on down, y’all. Actually…I don’t have a veranda and I don’t own any bourbon, but if you’re ever in Texas, hit me up and I’ll…
Ripped Jeans and Bifocals will never become a fitness blog. You will not see pictures of me in spandex showing off my yoga poses or posts about my awesome new recipe for kale and spinach smoothies. Because no one needs to see that, ever and ew…spinach and kale. But bear with me for a second….
For you new linker-uppers: I’m excited you’re here. If you’ve come here to linkup your #AdoptionTalk post, you’ll add your link to the very end of this post…reads, comments and shares while you’re here are super awesome and I can’t wait to visit you, too! I am really excited to be going in to…

My favorite teen mom is making the news again. This summer, I wrote a post about the ridiculousness of the amount of money Farrah Abraham’s kid scored for a lost tooth. Six hundred bucks. I get that this amount of money is chump change for a celebrity, and yes, I cringe at calling Farrah a…
I’ve never been a big believer in New Year’s resolutions. Eat less, eat better, exercise more, work harder, relax more… yadda yadda. The onset of a new year has never motivated me to want to make changes in my life. I try to be a decent human year-round and to be kind to myself and…
I love this time of year. I love the decorations and the lights…mostly because I’m not the designated light putter upper in our family. I love the way our street comes alive with twinkly colors at dusk, accompanied by inflatable snowmen and giant nativity scenes. I love the yards with the baby Jesus nestled right…
Two things: I’m pretty sure my husband would consider divorce as an option if he were to read this. My husband hardly ever reads my blog so if you’re worried about the state of my marriage, it’s all good. So. The Star Wars movie comes out this week. Whoop de doo. As you might have…
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #MeAndMyTea #CollectiveBias I actually made a holiday bucket list this year. It seems like every time the New Year rolls around, my husband and I have a laundry list of “Man, we should have done that’s.” It seems like…
